Bluegrass music is an American pastime, for sure. And nothing says Bluegrass like the band Trampled by Turtles, a quintet formed back in 2003 in Duluth, Minnesota. With the genre still going strong, they were able to land their music deal and start bringing out the banjos and mandolins with masterful force.

Hailed as a tremendous immortal band in support of the genre, one of their most celebrated albums was indeed Palomino back in April of 2010. Although many would classify the Turtles as standard Bluegrass, know this: there's a lot more to the Turtles than you think!

Call it 'speedgrass' if you want. It's Bluegrass on acid. What thrash did for the rock genre, Trampled by Turtles did for the Bluegrass genre. No doubt about that. They weren't strangers to the haunting Bluegrass ballads, though - and they certainly knew how to use the time-tested treasured instruments of the genre - the banjo, fiddle, acoustic bass guitar, mandolin, and of course guitar. Make no mistake - you're in for a listening treat with the Turtles whenever you get a chance to hear them.
